Azerbaijani Defense Ministry commented on statement by chief of Armenia’s military intelligence

The chief of Armenia’s military intelligence makes false statements meant only for public, Azerbaijani Defense Ministry Spokesperson Eldar Sabiroglu said commenting on a statement by chief of Armenia’s military intelligence, Maj.-Gen. Arskah Karapetyan.

Armenian media recently reported that Arshak Karapetyan urged not to frighten Armenia with larger military budgets as spirit, will, strength and skill, which is inherent in the Armenian army, wins in  the battlefield.

"Situation in the Armenia army is deplorable. Due to critical economic situation in the country, the military budget has been cut. The Armenian army is not provided with all necessary items. They have no money to maintain soldiers. They are not even fed in time. What kind of spirit and combat effectiveness can exist there under such circumstances?” Sabiroglu said.

"So, all these false statements are meant only for public both in the country and abroad. They will never criticize themselves and that's why they make such a statement,” he said.
